Raised sev’ral kinds o’ p’tic’lar cain

An’ pulled some rowdy stunts.

Now ’Mersion ’s pop’lar thar ter Sims’,

Some ’d ruther hev ’t than eatin’s;

More ’n half the fokes sings Baptis’ hymns

An’ goes ter all the meetin’s.

Wal, they jes’ give ’emselves a hunch

An’ got the law behind ’em;

The sheriff rounded up the bunch,

An’ Jestice Herford fined ’em.
